Oh, your most recent messages appeared below the fontconfig patch thread
on guix-devel in my MUA, so I did not make the mental link to #41282.

The missing fonts were in images (PNG files) embedded in the manual, so
it does not matter what you have installed: they are not rendered when
you open the .png, unlike e.g. SVG or a rich text document.

The difference is that Pango (and its consumers) did not recognize the
built-in fallback font in fontconfig which was previously 'gs-fonts',
now changed to 'font-dejavu'.
